CNN

Old man stop whining you do not know how to give speach, stop your execuses if you try you know you would be booed

McCain will never speak to the German people as President because he will never be elected President. The republicans have screwed this country so badly that even the thought of that sends shivers down the spine!

Obama's speech, when boiled down, and all hype removed, amounted to:
"Ich bin ein Beginner."

Interesting how the ones who actually can vote for President, i.e. AMERICANS, are not fooled by the rock band tour. Not with the gap closing between the two.
Obama is caught up in his own fantasy and the three networks have joined in the delusion. None of them seem to realize that AMERICANS are a heckuva bit smarter than they are given credit.
I believe that AMERICAN CITIZENS (not illegals!) will see through the smoke and mirrors of both candidates and the political lunacy we'll be forced to endure for four more months and vote in the right person – now if we could only get Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck to agree. : )

Cmon mccain, you can't even draw a crowd to the dairy section in King Soupers – there's no way you could do an event like Obama.

Boy, McCain is sounding even more bitter than usual. I guess his plan to prod Obama into a trip to the middle east has backfired on him big time, huh. He just may have helped Obama put the last nail in the John McCains presidential campaign coffin.

Ok correct me if I'm wrong..But didn't McCain give a speech in Canada???

In order to be a rock star you have to have alot of fans. Do you think Mcattack would not do the same if he could draw a croud like that?

I am sick and tire to read how McCain is a very good and Obama is not in blog like this.

Where are the facts or where you getting your facts from? I view youtube McCain flip flops and I see lots of inconsistency in McCain's own words.

Where is the facts that you are talking about that MCCain has for the country.
Just admit you hate Obama because either you hate black man or you are dying hearted Republican who will follow them to their graves. If what is happaning to the country is the way the country have to be ruled, because if you have conscience you realized that country need better leadership.

You guys a busy dividing us America, but the enemies group us together. just take your mind back to 9 11 does the terrorist separated white from black before they striked?

Good luck with that. You are better off at a German restaurant

Problem is, no one would show up.

Jonny boy...didn't you make a pathetic speech here (Ottawa I believe) months ago which we didn't ask you to be here...ya just kinda showed up and started talkin about NAFTA!

You couldn't attract 200 people at your rallies, let alone 200 THOUSAND like Obama.

And personally, I'm gettin tired of people who are hatin on O because he draws big crowds. How is that the "media" pushing it? Did the media ask people to go there? Give me a break!

Why don't you actually look around you and realize there are millions of people who love and adore Obama, and you're part of the MINORITY – so get over yourselves.

mcWAR is sore jealous.This dream is what it is-a dream!

Who cares when old mcbush wants to speak to Germans. Noone would show up anyway!! The man is just boring. The media won't show his entire speeches because the viewing public switches channels When I want to sleep, I listen to a mccain speech.

As an outsider looking in, I fully support President..... errr. Senator Obama!!

Why Obama prefers to go abroad to have a speech instead having the town hall meeting with McCain. Voters in america need to know what Obama is going to help them with the struggling economy and high gas price.

Barack is close to violating The Logan Act:

The Logan Act, codified at 18 U.S.C. § 953, states: Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

NEWS!!!

SENATOR Obama IS a government representative like SENATOR McCain is!

who wants to loisten to a nasty looking old dried up angry white man like john mcartifact? he and his campaign are so sour with all the hateful rhetoric and it's still relativey early. i guess they will be calling barack obama a black so-an-so pretty soon huh? i sure hope that obama's securty team is wide awake as we close in on election day. should obama be ahead by a significant amount the republicans will try to kill him i'm sure.

Pardon me,
Didn't Senator McCain deliver a nice speech regarding NAFTA up in Canada just a few weeks ago? Maybe, say, around June 20th or so?

So Reagan84, how does that fit into yuor comment from 3:58?

Be careful Sen macain of what you ask for, you might just get it and at the same time get showed up while you are getting it.

Good luck with that, John.

Obama 08!

I'll bet McCain would like to speak in Berlin as President...and I'd like to fly to the moon

Toni Castillo, Romeoville, IL – I find it funny how no one including yourself, has even mentioned that McCain was over in Europe and in Iraq, and Afghanistan numerous times, but nah he was not pandering, nah never....

Get a clue, Barack is doing a wonderful job, and will continue to do so as president of the United States..

To bad because you never will !!!

Will Never happen!! republican voting for Obama!!

Dose he now where the country is?

Who will show up? He couldn't fill 1800 seats yesterday! There were 900 open seats!!!

Go Bam! You are the man!

Have anyone noticed that Obama lost most of the states to Hillary after the crowd of 75,000 at his rally in Oregon?

Berlin people's curiosity won't select the President of United States!!!! Americans will and they sure know how to select the most qualified candidate to be the next President of this great nation!

DUDE YOU WON'T BE ELECTED

DOG CATCHER IN AMERICA.

WE WOULD RATHER ELECT BUSH AGAIN.

He'll never get the chance. I don't think he could pay German's to hear him speak.

McCain first attempts to discredit Obama for his lack of foreign policy experience. Then, he makes a trip abroad of his own and intimates that Obama should follow his lead. Now, as Obama captures the global stage, McCain blasts him for doing so. McCain so very much personifies the "Same Old Washington" that America has grown disinfranhised with. The sad part is that he doesn't seem to realize that he's his own worst enemy when he acts as he is now.

They'd LOVE McCain in Europe. NOT. He'll be riding around looking for Yugoslavvia and the USSR and the Berlin Wall. What fun. Maybe he'll look for Queen Elizabeth and be surprised how much she's aged. They can be OLD together. DeGaulle would LOVE to meet McCain. Oh my, and Kruzchev will be so EXCITED. Or did he want to meet Breznef? Tito might like to chat too. How about Franco? Papadapolis? Prince Rainer and Princess Grace ( his favorite movie star I bet). Do them all baby. Take your ouji board and have at it.

Over 200,000 German people....must have been interested in WHAT OBAMA HAD TO SAY...TODAY!

Watch what you wish for...you just might get it!
McCain prodded and poked Obama to go abroad...
and BOY DID HE!

The McSAME Camplain...."whiners are winners"...should be their new slogan!

Mcain, if you can't even speak to a crowd of 1000 how can you handle thousands? I am not an American but I can tell you Mcain in power will represent the status quo and his warmorgerring clan will continue to terrorise the world.

Plus Mcain the world is tired and does not want to hear from YOU!

I am sure McWar could find a German Diner that he could fill...

macbush is on the law of diminishing return, at 72 his brain cant take 2 much of all the troubles it takes to run a successful campain and the country

make sure obam SPEECH without a teleprompter is a funny thing.

I agree with McCain.

If Obama is trying to win the race in the United States, then why is he campaigning in Germany? Seems to me like he is trying to win the vote of the world before he wins the U.S. vote....seems a bit backwards to me.

He should be trying to win over his people here in the U.S.

At least, i guess, Germany will never have to hear him then. Lucky them

Hey Lorraine, First off, Obama was not asked to speak in Germany it was his sole arrogant decision; it had nothing to do with the German government asking him and he was initially shot down by the Prime Minister as to where HE wanted to say the speech. Second, there was a concert going on before the big speech which is why there was a big crowd. Third, just because you can go to a foreign land and give a speech in front of a large crowd does not make you qualified to be President. The same goes for the trip to the Middle East. Just because he spends one day in Afghanistan, one day in Iraq and one day in Israel does not qualify him to be Commander in Chief. I went to Israel recently does that make me qualified? I don't think so. He may "look" Presidential but looks does not make one qualified!

ReaganDem84 – Maybe you don't know this, from whatever shallow existence your living, but Barack Obama is a US senator, and has every right to speak to foreign entities, its part of his job, and the committee he is on specifially deals with Foreign relations...better do your homework cheif...

What bitter yes I said that nerve

WHICH MEANS HE WILL NEVER SPEAK THERE.............

That will never happen

I don't think, even as president, McCain could get even a quarter of the audience that came out for Obama. It's funny watching this jealous, he criticized Obama for not going overseas. Now Obama is overseas he criticizes Obama for being overseas. This isn't a political thing, people in other parts of the world by and large see Obama as the one who can make a difference. McCain comes across as confrontational and ignorant.

McCain has integrity, how so? Obama's a blatant opportunist? If McCain would have something to say other that the same tired rhetoric"Obama has no experience, he cant understand , he should go to iraq and afghanistan" blah blah blah, someone may listen to him.

My question to Senator McCain is, when you said, go abroad and see what our allies are all about because I have already been there several times, where did you actually want Obama to go?
I heard you are demanding debates with Obama. Can you exactly say what you actually want before the debates begin in case you want something else. Be careful what you wish for now.

I've noticed a trend here.........obama supporters are extremely dumb and arrogant. Not a pretty combination.

I guess that the German people will not get the chance to hear McCain in person. His ego is larger than his statue or his age, and that is bad!

To the comment above me: McCain is not a blatant opportunist? Should we look up those speeches on Jerry Falwell? Or is that too obvious?

July 24th, 2008 4:06 pm ET

Once again, McCain shows he is a man of integrity

OMG, if you think the person we have in office right now was stubborn just think what this old man is going to be like!!!
I ask you just think of your grand parents or even better think of your elderly parents. He is too OLD!!!

I am so f-ing sick of obama. He is just a clown. Yes, McCain is not great either, BUT, Obama????? Please! All he does is look pretty and give pretty speeches that someone else writes for him. He is also arrogant to boot.

NADER 2008

Whoa...nelly, that's a hell'va dream you got there grampa. It's time to wake up from your nap.

We Americans can barely get through a few sentences in your boring and lame speeches, I don't think the Germans could stay awake to hear your entire speech, I know I can't. AND trust me I've tried, but the lack of sincerity and substance of your speeches just leaves a big THUD in the "motivation" department. I don't think Germany WANTS you speaking in any capacity.

It is a sad commentary on the man when a U.S. Senator whines that he needs to be President of the United States to say something effective.

Apparetly John McCain is not the Leader he says that he is. (Hint for Candidate McCain: It's the person, not the position).

Mccain wishes he could draw more than a hundred people, but he cant .

I'd love to speak in France as President of Playboy magazine. I think I have a better chance than McGeezer.

Um. Lee, a suggestion? Lose the second comma. I believe that McGeezer is a man of integrity who is trying to buy the Presidency, not a blatant opportunist, but you may have intended it as a compliment.

well Mccain..maybe in your next life

OBAMA 08

obama said world stand together only moron believe that, must be agre just like in SF

John McCain pressed and pressed Senator Obama into going overseas. Now he is saying Obama not being president yet should not of been there and spoken the way he did. Nothing pleases this man ....whiney, whiney McCain. McCain's judgments are all wrong. It backfired on you Johnny Boy LOL........ Then McCain said he was disappointed because the storm (Dolly) stopped him from making his speech. He should be more concerned about the people and the destruction it is causing instead of himself. The world likes Senator Obama ............

McCain you can't get that kind of crowd here – let along Germany. Go sit down somewhere and stop complaining.

Everyone in the world is loving the change and hope that Obama brings. You're just the same ol', same ol

I'm afraid McCain just doesn't have the oratorical or political skills to compete with Obama on the world stage. McCain, although I believe he is an honorable man, would not be able to accomplish the things that I believe Obama can. He is the right man, in the right place, at the right time, with the right skill set and approach to provide the kind of leadership the country and the world are craving.

Never thought I would say this about a presidential candidate but... Hater!

Be careful Sen mccain of what you ask for you might just get it and at
the same time get shows up.

Obama,Obama,Obama!!!!!!!!!!!!

BUY,Buy, mccain.

I was watching one of his town halls earlier and it was strange, not a single smile in more than 5 minutes- oh sure he got applause, but everyone was looking at the floor and seemed generally bitter and downtrodden about something.

Draw your own conclusions, but its something to look for.

Sooooo one reporter was waiting at the airport for McCains Arrival... okay

OBAMA 08

McCain's jealousy is showing and he has to know that most people in Germany probably wouldn't come out to hear him anyway. He gives a lousy speech. I was always told "be careful of what you wish for, you just might get it".
McCain went on and on about Obama not going to Iraq and other places and now that he has done it, he doesn't like the outcome. McCain should have known better, but as usual he nor his campaign have a clue. He can always plan his own trip to the Middle East and Europe and then the American press can follow him around too.

LEE, what on earth are you talking about? Obama went abroad because of the coercion of Bush III.

I believe the speech today was a political rally. His campaign needs to pay for this trip instead of the taxpayers.

ps: Is the media so desperate to find support for Obama they are scourring death row for something positive to say about Obama? Now that is a population of support,I would be impressed by!

obama is now a citizen of the world! WOW. I do'nt care how far he runs he can't get away from rev. wright. If you can't change your church, you can't change the world!
McCain has it right, he is not running around the world trying to smooze every person he meets.

Really, is that why you don't bring the press with you on your trips? You should be happy you don't get more press coverage you old old OLD man. It would just show you up more as the doddering old fool that you are.

Yeah because he can't afford it. He is so old. He is not getting enough donations to take a world trip.

Well, McSurge, don't forget the speech you made in Canada, oh did you forget that already??? So did I actually, until MSNBC called you out on your hypocrisy...

Obama/Biden, 08

McCain is obviously very jealous.

What does McCain expect, Obama is very well liked by a lot of people around the world.

McCain will NeVeR get this attention and it is because McCain and the RNC crawl out from under a rock, criticizes Obama, and then turn around and crawl right back under.

I mean... what would you expect him to say? "I'm going to Germany, too! And I'm going to attract even bigger crowds! He can't get bigger crowds than me! Waaaa!"

At this rate, McCain's going to get a sympathy backlash. He wanted to show up Obama by exploiting his overseas experience. And now his challenge to Obama is biting him in the butt. What's done is done. Let's move on.

Obama's speech speaks volumes of the kind of president he wil be. He was accorded the presidential welcome in Iraq and came out of the meetings sealing the deal with Iraq on a timeline. He defended Israel June 4th, the next day says it was "poor phrasing". In Israel he decided to change his middle name to Jeremiah as he spoke to the Israelis and pledging his undying committment ardoned in the white yarmulke . He dines with Royals in Jordan where he chose to define success. He gets to Berlin and sounds repeats President George Bush second inaugural speech. Can the Senator be himself?

McOld have forgotten that he gave a speech in Canada about a month ago…were you a POTUS then. This oldman will say anything to be in the news. He can't even remember what he said a month ago..

McCain is right - what was the point of the speech, except to make headlines? Obama said nothing substantive, but that's really nothing new.

This man is so funny!! Barack is not paying attention to him but McCane continues to React to every word and action that comes from Obama. Its ironic because McCane actually sounds juvenille!!

John McCain you shouldn't be so upset. You're the one who started the clock/timer showing the last time Barack went to Iraq. He only took your suggestion and expanded to a middle east / european trip.

McCain stop whinning. The RNC had a clock ticking on its' website for how long Obama had visited Iraq. Now that he made a successful trip, you critcize and whine. Poor campaign strategy, I smell desperation. Maybe you should focus on your policy for America and stop attacking Obama. Americans are not voting for the person with the most attacks, and I personally don't know where you stand on issues like how to fix the economy, mortgage crisis, or your energy policy and health care. The only clear issue I understand is your war policy.

One of the most important (if not the most important) speech given by an AMERICAN, for America, was given today; and this is how CNN shows respect to us all.

Once again CNN and Senator McCain show their lack of integrity and respect for the American citizens.

Wah! Wah! Wah! Wah! Someone give that man some tissue as well as Depends and Viagara!!

Please stop all that dang whining.

McCain also added the Obama is no longer invited to his birthday party.

It was you, Mr. McCain, who challenged Obama on his foreign policy credentials, now he goes over seas and the people seem to love him. Who is it that has problems with their foreign policy credentials now?

Lee – it is obvious that your candidate is inspiring at all. The old 2000 McCain was a great man until he was swift boated by Bush and now look at him. What a shame for a man of his stature to be like this.

HA no one would show up to listen to your speech!

Lee I fail to see how anyone is BUYING the election, is your vote for sale???

No one's is, and its actually illegal to Buy one's vote...so the election is not for sale, nor is anyone buying the election...

If you like what you hear you will vote based on what you hear, not by how much someone spends....

I could spend one dollar, and my counterpart can spend millions, but if you don't like what one says, then your not going to vote for them..

So enough of the buying the election garbage...its not happening.

I however love what Barack stands for, and what he says, so regardless of what he spends, or how much or how little, he gets my vote.

He does not advertise much in Illinois, so he does not spend much here...he does not need to, we have seen, and heard him from day one... and he will have my vote

Obama 08!

McOld have forgotten that he gave a speech in Ghana about a month ago...were you a POTUS then. This oldman will say anything to be in the news. He can't even remember what he said a month ago..

What does that even mean? Is his criticism of Obama that Obama hasn't won the presidency yet? Wait 'till November, McCain; it will all happen in due time.

Obama '08!

Wait a minute! Was he talking this nonsense when he traveled Europe and the Middle East after he became the presumptive nominee? LMAO! He sure wasn't! Sounds like jealousy to me!

CNN, please, also report that McCain gave a speech in Canada a month ago !!! How can McCain criticize Obama for doing something he did himself in Ottawa?

Oh poor baby! Somebody's feeling a little sore.

Yes McCain, thats why you made such an effort to get your voice heard in the three Berlins, State side. Hypocrite!

I think the point McCain, is that if you'd have been that popular you'd have made a speech. But you're not, so it's a bit of a mute point.

Pity you won't get the chance as president, my friend.

Poor old senile McCain. Mister sour grapes!

AHHHH, I get it: he's at a GERMAN restaurant. Boy, Mayor McCheese sure is clever.

Well, luckily he'll do neither.

Hey, I figured out how to get around the fact that McCain won't campaign on weekends.

I'm going to make a pullstring doll that says "Obama won't drill" and "The Surge is working."

Make multiple and he can appear on all the Sunday shows. Then it will be like McCain is really there and he can still get his much-needed weekend rest!

That's simply means never!

HE HAD A EUROPEAN TOUR & MCSENILE HAD

THE SAME 30 GERIATRIC FOLKS SHOW UP,

THAT SHOW UP FOR HIS TOWN HALL MEETINGS.

Why is it okay to give numerous speeches specifically in Canada, Columbia, and Mexico? Your desperation has turns me off big time. Sad

I challenge you to go ON YOUR OWN Campaign money (Obama paid for the European leg of his trip).

I challenge you !! Let's see you go McCain. Do it. How many days since you went to Germany ?

We know, you went to Columbia.

Don't worry Mcsurge and crew will steal the election like they did in 2004 with Florida and the "recount". They have all the the MSM eating out of the palm of their hands. You wimps in the media.

Would someone tell John"THE CRYBABY" Mccain to stop whining.

Too bad you'll never get the chance, Johnny boy.

Oh well, that means he'll never speak in germany.

Give it up McCain, you're looking dumber and more childish by the day.

McCain could only dream about attracting that many to one of his speeches in our outside the US. Keep dreaming!

Hopefully he will never get a chance as president so he might as well go and bore the Germans now with his platitudes.

On the surface McCain has a good point. But considering our international relations are probably at the lowest they have ever been in this country, whether or not the rest of the world likes Obama is important to me as an American voter. Its going to be very difficult to repair 8 years of the Bush 'our way or the highway' approach.

On this issue we are better off knowing now whether not Europe (for example) is more likely to meet us halfway depending on who is president. If they like both candidates so be it and we can put this issue to bed. Obviously they like Obama in a big way. But I dont know about McCain... and I want to know.

I don't know if McCain is being childish by whinning about the lack of press coverage he is getting or is in admiration of all the press coverage Obama is getting.
It just may be the latter b/c you gotta love a guy who EFFORTLESSY LOOKS, TALKS AND THINKS LIKE A LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD.

GOD BLESS OBAMA AND GOD BLESS THE U.S.A

Mccain need to stop whining, complaining and freakin grow up. He better try talking to them right now because he probably won't get that chance once Obama becomes President!!

aww McCain is jealous. You're such a hater. Please go take a nap

He had no problems giving speeches as a presidential candidate in Canada or South America.

Is someone jealous?

I don't want to speak in Germany either. Just for the record. Don't bother asking me to.

ok, johnny boy, i don't blame you, i would wait too. No need for you to go all the way to Germany and make a complete fool of yourself. You are doing a great job of that here in the US of A.

But I guess it's ok to give a speech in Canada as a candidate for the office of the presidency? Hypocrisy anyone?

Of course McBush doesn't want to speak to the German people as a candidate for president. He'd be laughed out of the country as the idiotic buffoon that he is. All he can talk about is his precious surge working, degrade Obama and ridicule his ideas, and give credit to the idiot in Washington for the price of oil going down. We deserve something better than that. He's almost as embarrasing as Bush is.

Luckily, Obama will be able to do both.

negative, negative, negative.

It is sad that McCain has taken to just basically attacking Obama and talking about Obama instead of hyping up his own policies and strengths. Guess that is how Bush did it....wait he isn't like Bush remember?

Obama 08'

Reading these posts on the ticker often makes me sick to be a registered Dem. You people need to tone down the hate rhetoric. You've become what you profess to despise.

John, sounds kind of petty to me. Kinda like school playground bluster. Does not enhance your image one iota.

Thank you Barack Obama for taking these first steps in extending good will to the nations of the world. The damage done by the current administration – the bullying, arrogant, elitist attitudes seemed insurmountable for too long and has left us increasingly isolated... Now our neighbors abroad are realizing – just as so many of us here at home have been able to – that there is hope.
Yes We All Can! Obama '08!!

Two Hundred Thousand people showed up and they can't even vote!
Talk about an inspirational leader. Barack is the man.
I would like to see the reception McCain would get if he tried the same trip abroad.
Obama in 08!

Lee,

Why dont you crawl into the fox hole you came from. Oh yea, McCain may win but no won will like him like Obama. And the world will be in shambles.

Well my friends John Mccain is just like Greg Stillson From the 1983 movie Dead Zone with Christopher Walken. Mccain would hide behind a baby like he hides behind the american Flag.

OLD MAN YELLS AT CLOUD

What a Losser and a lost old man.
Your time has come and gone
The world want a change!, real change
No more rat RACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Retire and go home, spend time with your family
Just go way, war monger!!!!!!!!!!
The KKK generation need to retire.

My God, is CNN reporting positive news about an Obama-opponent. Where are your propaganda police today?

Has someone tald Obama that Germany isn't one of the 57 states, and they can't vote for him?

I agree. Obama is pretending to be the President and he hasn't been elected yet. Shouldn't we the people of the US be able to elect the president and not have someone just push his way into office?
This sounds more like a dictatorship instead of a democracy!

Proper etiquette,as usual,for a modest American Hero!

I do recall Mccain recently giving a speech in Canada which was certainly a political sppech as he talked about NAFTA, etc. He was not President when he gave this speech. So where does Mccain draw the line of his speech in Canada versus Obama's in Germany? Do we note some jealousy here in the fact that McCain had 150 in attendance in Canada of which 125 were asleep whereas Obama had 200,000 in Germany.

lol...i had to laugh but McCain's got a point.

McCain needs to show more personal respect. As Obama said, he disagrees with policies and opinions, but doesn't attack McCain personally. To say that Obama doesn't care if he wins the war, especially when he is out of the country, is going to the bottom of the barrel. Desperate? Show some respect.

COM ON, DON'T BE SO HARD ON THE OLD IDIOT.

HE JUST WANTS A CHANCE TO INFORM THE

GERMANS THAT PUTIN IS THEIR PRESIDENT.

I kinda like Obama, but this showboating isn't helping me change my vote. A house of cards only falls one way.

McCain's good luck is that the mainstream media hasn't connected the dots that Phil Gramm wrote his economic policy AND Phil Gramm also is responsible for legislation that has caused increases in energy prices (enron loophole author) and the mortgage crisis (bank deregulation).

The economy is the number one issue, and McCain's policy maker is a huge part of the problems we face today.

Who are you going to address, President Putin?

I guess you wont be giving a speech in Germany since you wont have the chance to be president.

Obama is nothing but an opportunists! He just goes wherever his spit falls. I hope that when he blows in the wind, his spit falls right back on his face.

Substance over Hype!! McCain '08!!

The people are interested did you not see the thousands and thousands of people waiting for BO speak?

The future president is speaking.

Go Obama

and another thing, McCain's advisor criticizing Obama for calling himself a 'citizen of the world' is an idiot. We are all 'citizens of the world' and the fact that McCain's campaign would criticize him for saying that illustrates the way McCain thinks and is further proof that McCain would only alienate the USA further from the rest of the world.

Once again, McSame shows that he has nothing useful to offer. He had a perfect opportunity to give counterpoints, but what did he do instead? He just said that he'd like to give a speech in Germany someday.

Seriously... McSame offers up that pointless nugget, and some people still yet say that Obama's speeches aren't substantive?

NOT TO WORRY, YOU WONT BE ABLE TO GIVE THAT SPEECH AFTER ALL. IT'S SAD THAT MCNOTHING HAS NOTHING GOOD TO SAY ABOUT OUR NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE US. HE EVEN THINKS THAT THE SPEECH THAT WAS GIVEN WAS NOT WHAT THE PEOPLE OF GERMANY WANTED TO HEAR AND HE WOULD GIVE ONE THAT THEY WANTED TO HEAR. LET'S SEE HOW THAT SPEECH WOULD SOUND (CRICKET SOUND)

McSame is falling apart before our eyes whatz happening to his left cheek?

i guess it mean he will never be in Germany to give a speech! OBAMA 08

Sour grapes! Too Funny!!!

Yes, I'm sure McCain would rather give a speech anywhere after he is president, but I pray he will never have that chance.
I cannot imagine any thinking person who would choose McCain over Obama when it comes to the "Commander in Chief" role. John McCain has been in the pocket of the Military-Industrial Complex ever since he got out of the POW Camp in Vietnam. He would exactly emulate George W. Bush, as he did in the decision to invade Iraq. The test for a future Commander in Chief is not whether or not the surge was successful. The test should be in the judgment shown or betrayed in the decision to send our brave young men and women to their deaths or maiming in an unnecessary war, to say nothing about bankrupting this country to satisfy a Presidential whim on false pretexts; when the real reason was the obscure chance that we might benefit from Iraq's oil..
Now

You can always tell when his people have written a decent line for him to repeat...

his delivery is worse than the postal service...

Obama is a joke, and he has made a circuis of his candidacy! People will continue to find out more about this clown and come November, McCain will win and the clown can go back to his home town! Obama has made a joke out of our Presidential election, and he will live to see the consequences! Go home clown, go home!

This man is truly arrogant. If we really are a nation of whiners, then McCain is definitely the right choice for prez.

Fortunately, he ain't going to get his wish.

MCBUSH WONT'S A CHANCE TO IN PERSON, MAKE PUTIN

THE PRESIDENT OF GERMANY, AS HE DID IN HIS TOWN

HALL MEETING, MORON.

I think it is hilarious that he is going to a german restaurant. He is probably confused and thinks that Obama is there, not realizing the difference between a german restaurant and the country of germany. Oh well, i hope nobody clues him in,,,, let him continue his quest to follow obama, its nice that he finds ways to be happy.

PLEASE...HES JUST SAYING THAT BECAUSE HE WASNT ASKED TO GO THERE.

I CANNOT BELIEVE WHAT A CHILDISH WHINER HE IS

ALL HE KNOWS HOW TO DO IS COMPLAIN
ALL HE TRIES TO DO IS MAKE OBAMA LOOK BAD TO MAKE HIMSELF LOOK GOOD.

IT WONT WORK YOU OLD FOOL.....YOUR A HAS BEEN AND WONT EVER BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

JEALOUSY IS SO UNBECOMING............

Eat your heart out..

Whatever, you wish you were there.... CNN is this the best the news media can do for Johnny boy is to make him feel he's winning in the polls now. Want work. You guys tried, he will pick his vp, the surge the surge the surge but still Mccain hasn't came forward on no withdraw date. This poll was asked by a bunch of republicans.

Please,,, America want be fooled this time.

Obama. 08/2012

Really what about when he went to canda and gave a speech. What was he giving the speech as?

No one's stopping you, McCain... You can go give a speech anywhere in the world you want... Stop hating...
Besides, that speech was one of the best ever, and it was not political at all... please give credit when due!

I wonder if McCain would attract a crowd as energised and excited as the one in Berlin ... or anyone else in the world.

...can you say "BIT-TER"? ..some sour grapes there...wow...

John, one correction...he is not the Democratic candidate YET...do not worry you will beat him in November. Dems only chance is to pick Hillary as Veep...and he won't do that.

I doubt Germany wants Old Man McSame to speak to them at all.

What about the speech McCain gave in Canada as a candidate for President?

"I would rather speak at a rally or a political gathering any place outside of the country after I am president of the United States," McCain told O'Donnell. "But that's a judgment that Sen. Obama and the American people will make."

"However, on June 20, McCain himself gave a speech in Canada - to the Economic Club of Canada - in which he applauded NAFTA's successes. An implicit message behind that speech was that Obama had been critical of the trade accord. Also, McCain's trip to Canada was paid for by the campaign."

McCain's advisors should be reminding him of these things, so that he doesn't make statements that are completely hypocritical.

McCain spoke in Canada on June 20, 2008, maybe 50 suits showed up for it.

Well Senator McCain. I guess you will be giving that speech in 2016. You will be about 80 years old, and I do not think you will draw over 200,000 supporters.

Obama – 2009-2016

WHINER!!!!! Nobody will play with me. Pathetic, sad little man!!! Sounds like a little kid looking from outside the fence at a playground saying, well, I didn't want to play right now anyway. Mr Magoo just hasn't a clue!!!

Guess McCain won't be making a speech in Germany then!

He will NOT and can NOT be the President of our great nation! He lacks the tact and temperment to be a true leader...

70% of Europeans want Obama elected as the American president even though 90% of Europeans would never vote for a black man as their own president.

No, you say? Then please, point out all those black European politicans for me..

Job well Done OBAMA, covers all aspect of the past and into the future, You shall rise up amongst Kings, and all nation call out your name, go forth and sow seeds the great reward is to come

...yeah, President of AARP

Mcsurge is Mcsad and Mcdesperate...

To Alanna.. Chill out there.. polls are showing the race is shifting in favor of McBush. Maybe obama should make speeches here than in germany, I dont need a "I will learn on the job" president. Talk isnt going to get my gas price down to $2-3/gallon or get my grocery prices down. Please give me a policy Obama. You are not running to be a public speaker but running for the president of my beloved country! Can we get real policies instead of speeches from obama?

Hey McCain, maybe you'll think twice again before "suggesting" Obama do something – like go to Iraq. Kinda backfired on ya old man didn't it? Did ya see the ENORMOUS crowd in Germany? Wait till Obama gets to France. The WORLD LOVES Obama. He's gonna be our next POTUS. You'll never get elected Papa Smurf. Jealous some? I can't wait to watch you blow your top in one of the debates!!!!

Sour grapes for Senator McCain and company. They wouldn't be howling as hard if their candidate was being feted by the europeans.

LOL. Is he whining?

I guess you will never speak there then....

My German friends find it offensive and odd that Obama is campaigning for the POTUS on German soil.

As an American I find it amused but not surprised that Obama is
campaigning for the POTUS on German soil.

Rumor has it that the Obama campaign has inquired NASA about
the possibility that the senator from Illinois may wish to deliver a
major speech on space exploration from the international space
station.

Obama complains that Americans don't know how to speak a foreign language, goes to Germany and speaks English. I did like the speech however. Obama would make a great President....... of Europe.

Here we go, it is going to be nothing but dirty sinks from here on out. McCain and the GOP will do what they do best, go negative. America, let's be smart, let's be different, let's correct the wrongs.

McCain also said he would rather lose the office of president than lose a war. The war is over and we won! What war is he refering to? The one we we will be fighting if he is elected?
Is it possible the Americans will elect this man?

I wish the media would cover John mcsame like it does Obama so America can see the mistakes Mccain makes. Please every one wake up we've had eight years bush can we chance four years of Mccain. No!No!No!No!.

The Warmonger is So Jealous!

The message you need to force yourself to hear, McSame, is we the people are sick and tired of the misgivings of your party.

And to you Bush – I personally don't think the Wall Street is a comic affair considering the impact it has on my family's well being – first we're a bunch of whiners and now Wall Street is drunk.

We don't want CHANGE – we MUST have CHANGE.

You'd rather give a speech in Germany as president than as a presidential candidate? Guess you won't be giving any speeches in Germany!! Look at the crowd he drew. You sound like the little "green" monster.

Too Bad he'll NEVER get the chance!

###########

He would crumble infront of an audiance that big!!!

This is definitely presidential ... whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine. Why can't mccain just campaign!!!

McCain is simply jealous. Yeah, he's known these people for years, and still, they've never given him a chance to give a speech. Doesn't that say something about how the rest of the world feels about him? He's part of the problem.

Yea, he'd like to do it at the Berlin Wall l.o.l.

But no worries, he wont get that chance.

And ye shall John. As a Hillary Democrat, you have my support and my vote. And, we look forward to you speaking at the Brandenburg Gate.

who is going to listen?

Keeeeep dreaming Mc shame. Does not hurt to dream what is not goiing to happen

And your point is...? I'm confused McCain. Of course you would rather give a speech as a president. Isn't that what this is all about?

You are just jealous because you were not asked. You could not bring a crowd bigger than your town halls anyway because no one wants to hear what little you have to say my friend.

Once again, McCain shows he is a man of integrity, instead of a blatant opportunist, who is trying to buy the Presidency of the United States of America.

give up mate

I love how the McCain camp attacked Barack Obama for saying that he is "a citizen of the U.S., but also a citizen of the world" '

I am certain now that McCain is clueless on international matters. I am sorry, but if you do not see yourself as a global citizen then you sir are ignorant to the changes that have occured. Globalization has brought us all closer together and inherent in that closeness lies a shared responsibility.

What would he speak about? How much he hates it that Germany didn"t like the Iraq war?

CNN, why do you even post that bull? How many countries did McCain go to? How many times did McCain DEMAND that Obama travel?

Like it or not, the rest of the world matters when picking a country's leader. In the globalized world, we cannot pretend to be isolated anymore. Get over it. Grow up.

CNN, if you can't stand the heat of McCain's whiny "oh, the press doesn't like me", then post REAL articles, not this crap.

I would love to see the literally 'ones' of people standing there listening to your 'wisdom' there, straight talker.

What about your speech in Canada recently?
Doesn't remember!

A speech that no one would attend, because you are the same as Bush and we all know what that means. Been there, done that.

I guess Senator McCain won't be visiting Germany.

Well...what else he could say. It is okey John...don't cry...don't be that jealous... you are big boy now

I guess he won't be speaking in Germany then.

Mccain is right....and he takes this position as most humble people would. Who would be so arrogant as to change the presidential seal, refer to oneself as president during an election and hold political rallys in foreign countries as though you are a head of a nation when you're not. That measure of arrogance do not exist in a mind that is humble enough to know......in a general election, voters speaks and choose the president. Until then, a candidate is only a person seeking the job. I'm all about being humble....I'm all about Mccain. And btw, I'm really rooting for a Mccain – Jindal ticket

McCain is a GAFFE MACHINE!! He gave a speech in Canada....what is the difference with what Obama did? Hate is a disease and he needs to stop hatin on Barack because he is getting love! I wish McCain would take a nap and shut that HOLE in his FACE!!

The more I hear John McCain speak , the more I hear a cranky jealous old man.

Jealousy is a horrible trait. Unfortunately McCain is adding this to his horrible anger issues.

I am glad Mr. McCain has not chosen to follow in Obama's steps. Befoe I wasn't sure who Obama was and what he stood for. Now I get it!! Mr. Obama is running for dictactor for the whole world. The only person that has interest and is running for president of the USA is Mr. McCain. It only took seven months to finally know who Obama really is.

Jealous much?

OUCH !!!

Has John McCain forgotten about the speech he made in Canada about NAFTA?

What a hypocrite.

Nobody would show up to listen to the old geezer!

...good luck with that.

Yeah, you are right 1000% because you won't be president my dear " Had been"!

After all...he always wanted to speak in a country that borders India...or is that Czechoslovakia? Help him out Joe!

Indeed. Grow up. Would you like some cheese with that whine, McSame as Bush!

Obama '08!

Just a bit snippy...don't you think there Johnny Boy???? Trying to show that you have a little fight in you??? Too bad you come across like a petulant child who is not getting their way ...spoiled...spoiled...spoiled. Or are you supposed to call people of that certain age...cantankerous?

President of what?

He's just bitter because Obama squashed his one arguement.

Obama has no foreign affairs experience. McCain challenged him to check out the Middle East. So Obama travels the globe and shows just how presidential he can be. Now McCain needs to find something new to attack, so why not attack the idea of visiting other countries that was McCain's idea in the first place.

The man supports a continued presence in Iraq. He has no understanding of technology. He openly admits knowing nothing about the economy. And now he gets trumped on foreign relations.

Time for some more attack ads!

well then i guess he will never be able to.

Umm, excuse me senator..... No one in Germany wants to hear u speak....

Uh... Didn't he speak in Canada while he was a presidential candidate... am I missing something?

Why didn't he wait til he was president to travel to Iraq and speak in Canada?

Why didn't he wait til he divorced his first wife to start up with Cindy?

Waiting isn't his style. Preemptiveness and uprovoked aggresiveness is. You may THINK that's a good thing, but think about it a while. See a problem?

Yes Germany is just a Tributary.... The USA, is Home Base...

Well.. goodluck to you sir!!

jajajajaja

HE IS GREEN WITH ENVY.... BECAUSE OBAMA ROCKS!!!

And you will John, you will!
PUMA PAC

Gramm was right.....You are a "whiner" boo hoo

you goated him into this trip....

be a man.......not a mouse

Sen Obama was supurb...admit it

never gonna happen mcsame!!!!.. ur freakin inSANE dude!

Hope not ,everybody ... will fall a sleep...

Just when I thought the guy couldn't get any worse. All he needs now is wooden head and sitting on gwb's lap.

YEAH McGRAMPS AND YOU'D ALSO PREFER A CAIN ON YOUR WAY TO GERMANY, YOU KNOW... JUST IN CASE YOU TRIP AND FALL, IT'S OK

UNITED WE'RE STRONGER

OBAMA (P) & CLINTON (VP) 2008-2014

NO TO "BUSH II", "McWAR", "BUSH'S-INTENT-FOR-2ND-PARADE-IN-IRAQ"

Too bad he won't get that opportunity.

whatever mcamnesty, you're not the media darling, so I guess you wont ever get to speak to ze germans.

shows McCain is not all puff and smoke.

Either he is blatantly lying about the surge or he's just so senile he honestly can't remember the time line. Do we really need a president who is either a lier or senile?

You will do John... Obama is over there, trying to stir up the Tribe....

Good luck but again I just think that is a dream..

Barack is close to violating The Logan Act:

The Logan Act, codified at 18 U.S.C. § 953, states: Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both. This section shall not abridge the right of a citizen to apply, himself or his agent, to any foreign government or the agents thereof for redress of any injury which he may have sustained from such government or any of its agents or subjects.

–reagandem84

That is when you should speak in foriegn countrys if you are representing America.

Now Obama says it's not a political move, though! His supporters believe that but we know better, right Mr. McCain? I mean all US senators go on a rock star tour of the world, just to say hello.

Sheesh. What is this. Third Grade

Grow up McBush.

You can't win.

Obama 08
